Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: TextMate at 100% against Google Cloud's 29%. TextMate also leads on rating (5.0 vs 3.4). Google Cloud's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ratings volume (105 vs 1). On price, ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. TextMate sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $1.99 per month. Google Cloud asks for nothing beyond the download.
